John l.. Minor, editor of The New

saws: "The most remarkable speech

for utter disregard Of public opinion.

. New state Weather: Service.

. A State weather service for Louis
lana will be organized by Mr.. r. b.
herkam, of the Signal Service. and
from the success he has met with in
other States, Louisiana will soon be
able to be proud of an efficient
weather service.
Local observers arc desired in
each parish of the State, and prime:
pals aud supcrintendeuts of schools,
the medical fraternity, and all others
interested are earnestly requested to
cooperate in this work.

greatly beneficial to agricultural and
other interests.
3. 1t will give TO every parish
standards of the temperature, rain

ing within the reach Of agricnltur'
lists data that is invaluable in the
| production of crops.
4. 1t will give to engineers correct
rainfall statistics to estimate the
supply of water for canals; to avoid
disasters by sudden heavy raips il

ImDOrtamt information.

The oft-repeated statement that
the Postofiice Department comes
closer to the people than any other
branch of the government, has ire
auen: illustrations. For example,
postmaster in Illinois, who is of the
gent|cr sex. lately wrote to the de-
partmcrt asking if she could get
married without losing her Office.
She was assured in reply that the
Postoflice Department looked with
the utmost favor,upon the marriage;
that it cordially congratulated her,
and had no intention Of removing
her from her Office in the event OF
her marriage; that, on the contrary,
if she would favor the department
with information as to the Gate of
the wedding aud the name she was
to assume, her reappointment under
her new name would he made out on
her wedding day. She sent the in
forma tiop, and got her new commits
sion for a wedding present. The
other day the department got let
ter from the assistant postmaster, a
lady in a town in New York State,
saying that the postmaster, a man,
was to be married. and she wanted
to attend the wedding, and so she
asked leave to close the postofijce
on the day of the event. The de,
partment authorized her to close tie
! Office for three hours, which ought to
be sufficient if she attends as a spec
tator, but if she attends in the
capacity Of bride it would be made
ouate.-City Item.

Negroes i'm White Schools.

They are having trouble in "Bleed-
ing Kansas" with the negro over the
mixed school question. A short time
ago the negro children at Fort Scott
seized a school and compelled tho
whites to withdraw, and In another
instance they forced themselves iuto
a white school and the teachers ro-
fused to hear any Of the negro
children recite or to teach them.
The Schools Board of Fort Scott is
composed of Republicans, and it is
opposed to complying with the de-
mands Of the negroes. aud the stand
it has taken is warmly supported by
Republican papers which a short
time ago attacked the Glenn Educa-
tional bill, that made it penalty
| for teacher to teach white aud
negro children together in the same
school.
In Ohio the same trouble exists.
and at the town Of Ripley, accord
ing to statements published in Re.
publican papers, negroes applied for
admittaace to white school and
| were empbatically rejected, aud
when they attempted to force them
selves on the whites at the town Of
Yellow Springs, the schools were
closed. We take pleasure in calling
the attention of the Chicago Inter
Ocean to these facts. It was howl
ing short time ago over the Glenn
! Bill and declaring that it was bar
barous and unconstitutional. Neither
the Inter. Ocean nor its Republican
patrons want the negro as their
social equal. but they would. if they
had the power, force him down the
throats of the Southern people. The
clamor these papers raise for the
CO education OF the races and the
| recognition OF the ''social rights" OF
negroes is not prompted by any great
love or admiration they have for the
African, but by the rancorous hatred
they bear the white people-"the
rcbels"-of the South. They would
openly acknowledge the truth Of this
statement were it not for the fact
that their cowardice is as contempti-
bic as their hatred.
! Co education and "social equality"
is a splendid thing if confined to the
South, but it is not quite so good at
home. The people Of the Soutl, have
all along candidly and openly de.
clarcd that the NEGRO problem is
for them alone to solve, and that in
dealing with this problem they will
never permit CO education or social
equality" 1t does our heart good
to see the Northern Republicans get
ting a dose Of the medicine they
have so long been trying to admins
ter to the South. We almost feel
like shouting, Go in niger and
keep your grip."-N. 0. States.

Pearl Fishers Of the Red Sen.

Some 800 boats Of from eight to
twenty tons burden, and with crews
of, in the aggregate, about $500 men,
mostly negro slaves, arc engaged in
the pearl fisheries of the Red Sea,
which yield from 100000 to $780,
600 a year. One.third Of the income
the owners OF the vessels retain; tho
remaining two thirds are distributed
among the crews. which makes an
average of $50 to $40 a year TO every
man. In former days Djeddah, near
Mecca, in Arabia, was the port
where all the pearls were taken and
sold; but since the government i'm
posed an import duty Of eight per
cent. upon the pearls the. fishers
commenced carrying their shells to
Massowah and Suakin, Oh the Afri'
can coast, where they have only one
per cent. Of duty to pay. At pres
ent the latter ports receive about
three quarters .of the entire yield,
hardly one quarter Of it still going
to Djeddah. From these ports the
pearls are transported to Cairo and
Alexandria, in lower Egypt, whence
most of them 60 to Trieste, upon the
Adriatic Sea, few only reaching
London and Hayre directly from
Egypt.

STAIN, the Younger.

In young Stain, the confessor, who has
implicated several notorious characters in
the famous Dexter bank robbery, the pub
lie witnesses a strange piece of humanity.
He is one whose motives in this matter
from the beginning have been apparently
entirely selfish. Want of gold seems to
have been the only incentive which has
prompted him at this late date, to give to
the public confession of the circumstances
which attended the preparation of crime
which has for years remained enshrouded
in mystery. Not the least compassion for
the afflicted widow and family
of the murdered cashier, not the
least concern for the opprobrium that
has by suspicion, been heaped upon an
innocent mans reputation and character,
not the slightest regard for justice has at
any time appeared to enter into the mo-
tives of this peculiar individual. His
motives have seemingly been as base as
his reported life. And then it seems also
incredible that even were one half of his
confession true, he could have remembered
and produced at this time all the minute
circumstances which appear in his confess
sion. Granting that the main points are
true-and there exists at this time reas-
enable amount of corroboratory evidence
to sustain them-he must have a most vivid
though untutored imagination to produce
all the little connecting links that have
been invented to bind together the main
points. Had he omitted these imaginative.
parts and stated bare facts without the
least coloring, he would have gained more
credit for truthfulness. As it is, the public
is not to blame for not believing him when
his motive and the lack of truth in his con.
tession are considered.

by the demand by running full. or closing
or partially closing any refinery, and
will have no difficulty in regulating the
prices of refined on a paying basis as
compared with the market price of raw
sugar. 1t is not likely that large profits
will be demanded, as this course would
antagonize the 100000 sugar consum-
ers who would unite in demanding from
the next Congress the entire removal OF
duties on both raw and refined sugar. The
combination has been led up to by the
disastrous condition of the business, and
the re6ners have been forced to do some
thing for self protection. The action OF
the government in continually reducing
the drawback on exports, until exports
ceased, thereby giving the refners no out
let for their surplus production, was one
cause.

Reconstruction Necessary

1t is very deplorable that the Minneapo-
lis convention has not been able to con-
tinue its sessions without trouble. The
responsibilities that were intrusted to it
and the duties that devolved upon it were
of such moment that it was absolutely
necessary that the greatest degree OF har-
mony attainable should prevail. Such is
the constitution of any large convention
and especially one whose representatives
come from so many different sections of
the country and so many different occupa-
tons, that there is greater liability to diff
ferences in ideas, in opinions and in con-
illusions entertained by individual men,
bers The construction of the order has
been perhaps faulty and responsible for
much of the difficulty. When all matters
are delegated directly to large body like
this convention there is increased liability
of difficulty. Had the matters been first
placed in the hands OF special committees
especially adapted for the prompt consid-
Grafton of the subjects and their reports
been presented to the convention there is
more probability that there would have
ensued greater harmony. The difficulties
arising from the first disposal of the
anarchist question would have perhaps
been averted and the action of the minor
ity of the convention in declaring
in favor of clemeucy for the Chicago
seven would have been prevented. The
resolution consuming Mr.. Powderly tor
his management of the Chicago pork
strikers would probably have never been
introduced, and the same the case with
many other matters. These troubles that
have disturbed the Minneapolis conven-
ton seem to indicate the necessity of a
new management of the general assem-
blies if not reconstruction of the whole
order.
